Play Engaging in debate and experimenting with technology to solve our members’ problems. Think Crossref, think metadata, not just DOIs. We’re building a bigger, better infrastructure with a registry of, for example, organizations. Long before a new service is launched it is incubated by our lab and many, if not all, new initiatives are the by-product of collaboration.

As Scott points out, one advance often leads to another. “I don’t know that I see it as a shift so much as an evolution and a way of taking every step of development as Crossref brings it to fruition to ask, ‘What more can we do with this? How does the fact that we’ve solved this problem highlighted another problem and what do we need to do to address that?’”
